典型例题
1） The weather in China is different from____.
A. in America B. one in America C. America
D. that in America
答案： D. 本题意为 " 中国的天气比美国热。 " 比较的是天气而不是国家， C 不能选。 A 没有名词，后句成分不全，排除。 B 和 D 中， B 中的 one 常用来代替可数名词，而 that 可车以代替不可数或抽象名词，所以选 D 。
2） After the new technique was introduced ， the factory produced ___ tractors in 1988 as the year before.
A. as twice many B. as many twice C. twice as many D. twice many as
　 答案 C. 此句意为 " 这个厂 1988 能生产的拖拉机是往年的两倍 " 。 表示倍数用 " 倍数 + as + 形容词原形 + as + 比较对象 " 的句型。所以此句答案为 C 。
This ruler is three times as long as that one.
